Deschutes die size is 131, not 75-80 according to
techstocks.com

That gives less die per wafer than you assumed, and no way will they be getting 80% yield in '98.

Also, your cost per wafer is half of what Paul Engel said on Intel thread ($2000)

Packaging cost for a SLOT 1/2 is WAY higher than $10, the L2 chip costs more than that.

With a die size of 81, packaging cost of $10 and no cartridge costs, you can see that the K6-3D is way cheaper to manufacture.
